As I mentioned, I didn't stay home and listen to the Triple J Hottest 100 today... I heard the initial couple, then came back in at around number 35 and heard the rest.My choices came in like this...
3. The Hard Road - Hilltop Hoods
5. I Don't Feel Like Dancing - Scissor Sisters
16. Young Folks - Peter, Bjorn & John
19. Kick Push - Lupe Fiasco
35. LDN - Lily Allen
44. Love Me Or Hate Me - Lady Sovereign
57. Private Education - Josh Pyke
89. Mardy Bum - Arctic Monkeys
I got two more "right" than I did last year... woohoo... and my prediction that at least six of the tracks I picked would make it into the 100 was right too... in fact I would have had nine if it hadn't been for the fact that I actually picked the "wrong" song by Camille... I took a guess because I couldn't remember which song it was that I really liked, and it seems like I guessed wrong... the same thing with the Arctic Monkeys song, but luckily both the one I picked AND the one I liked hit the top 100.
I was also right that Scissor Sisters made it into the top ten... although privately I was kind of hoping it would come in at number one.
And the actual top ten... it looked like this...
1. One Crowded Hour - Augie March
2. Black Fingernails, Red Wine - Eskimo Joe
3. The Hard Road - Hilltop Hoods
4. When You Were Young - Killers
5. I Don't Feel Like Dancing - Scissor Sisters
6. Crazy - Gnarls Barkley
7. Chasing Cars - Snow Patrol
8. Hearts A Mess - Gotye
9. Starlight - Muse
10. 19-20-20 - Grates
I like a couple of them (other than the ones I voted for)... and I don't mind the number one song (although the number two annoys the crap out of me now).

I like 5, 4, and 7. My friends don't like 7 but I think it's pretty. :)
Hmmm... I don't think I'm very Triple J!
1 is OK, I like 7, I like 5 but have overplayed it, and have only heard of about 3 of the rest (I might recognise the tunes though - not very good with names!)
